Failure (to X)

~ Harlan Didrickson

Remember this

My friend

Success is

Fleeting and

Often assigned

By others

Failure is

Yours alone

Own it

And learn

From it

Peace

~ Harlan Didrickson

Damnation is

Not Hell

It is

However not

Knowing yourself

To gain

Peace try

This

Know

Want

Look

Drink

Wait

Look

Drink

Satisfy

Keep

Keep what

You found

And be

Satisfied knowing

That others

Remain thirsty

Poet

~ Harlan Didrickson

And we

Met and

We kissed

And we

And and

And he

Slept and

In that

Twilight I

Whispered I

Shall paint

You with

Words hear

The harmonies

Dance trace

Your ribs

With fingers

And dip

My pen

Into your

Beating heart

Finally (for Adam)

~ Harlan Didrickson

And when

We part

Will it

Be a

Cork from

A bottle

Or the

Heat on

Snow will

It be

Spring to

Summer or

Fall to

Winter me

I prefer

To shine

Thinking of

You as

Our sun

Sets last

UsWe (to Travis)

~ Harlan Didrickson

And what

When something

Happened would

I would

You you

Be there

Or would

I I

Just I

What happens

To us

When we

Is gone
